BALI
Rich Brian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh, always workin' hard, I just got it in my genes (uh)
Think so much, I think my brain is burnin' calories (uh)
I'm mostly quiet, but I'm always wildin' when I drink (uh)
To you, it's fantasies, but to me, it's just last week (uh)
I don't never stress none of that shit from yesterday
At nine, I got a date, told her that she could pick the place
Don't tell me we're the same, little bitch, this is night and day
I spent my day with a smile and with my soul intact
But you just spent your day on simpin', hopin' that she gon' call you back, yeah
Stop answerin' all the questions when nobody asked
You geekin' when you winning, and it shows me you ain't used to that, yeah
My life is startin' to look like a completed bucket list, ayy
You know you in some trouble if your girl know I exist
I been winning and I know that's what you hate to see
I feel like I'm six foot tall whenever you stand next to me
Yeah, my schedule's packed, I got a pool, I haven't swam in it
Like yeah, I'm on a date, we watchin' Parasite, she lovin' it
Like ayy, yeah, ayy, I like to keep my dates affordable
Like ayy, yeah, ayy, that's why I got on Forbes' article, like ayy
You like to hate, but you can't walk a mile inside my shoes, ayy
I'm schoolin' all these rappers, but I never went to school, uh
You say you rollin' deep, those numbers 'bout to get reduced
I came from Indonesia, but inside I never moved
Uh, always workin' hard, I just got it in my genes (uh)
Think so much, I think my brain is burnin' calories (uh)
I'm mostly quiet, but I'm always wildin' when I drink (uh)
To you, it's fantasies, but to me, it's just last week (uh)
I don't never stress none of that shit from yesterday
At nine, I got a date, told her that she could pick the place
Don't tell me we're the same, little bitch, this is night and day
I thought we was in Bali, shit feel like holidays
I just been gnarly like Marley, at parties off Henny, I'm spinnin' from sips (Henny)
Jigga been sellin' the weed and molly to Mollys to get 'em my zips (molly)
I need to get on the phone with NASA, it's obvious it's an eclipse (NASA)
I'm shine in that shade, and the foreign I drive in not German, bruh, it's an Eclipse
That's an old Mitsubishi, my flow like Rikishi
I float like a buoy, musubis and boobies
I do it with hoes on the beaches
Who be on my peepee, ruby on my pinky, yeah
She be sleepy, I be creepin', secret keepin'
Stripper peepin', money sweepin'
Then we leavin', back to thievin', yeah
Uh, always workin' hard, I just got it in my genes (uh)
Think so much, I think my brain is burnin' calories (uh)
I'm mostly quiet, but I'm always wildin' when I drink (uh)
To you, it's fantasies, but to me, it's just last week (uh)
I don't never stress none of that shit from yesterday
At nine, I got a date, told her that she could pick the place
Don't tell me we're the same, little bitch, this is night and day
I thought we was in Bali, shit feel like holidays
The chorus in 'Bali' by Rich Brian & Guapdad 4000 talks about the feeling of being on vacation, like in Bali, even when they aren't really on vacation. The song's verses both tackle different themes - Rich Brian discussing how he never stresses about past situations and just focuses on the present, while Guapdad 4000 talks about his experiences with women, parties, and his success. Rich Brian raps about his hard-working nature and how he thinks so much that he burns calories, which could be interpreted as him being dedicated to his craft and constantly thinking about ways to improve. He also mentions how he doesn't get hung up on the past and instead focuses on the future, as he has a date at 9 PM that he's excited about, showing that he's looking forward to creating new memories.
Guapdad 4000, on the other hand, talks about his crazy experiences with women, partying, and his success, as he talks about his schedule being busy and how he's having fun with his date by watching the movie Parasite. He also talks about his expensive taste, as he mentions having a ruby on his pinky. He mentions how he shines through the shade, which could represent how he stands out in the music industry and is successful despite any obstacles.
Overall, the lyrics of 'Bali' celebrate the idea of living in the moment and enjoying life, whether it's through hard work or fun experiences.
